Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 9,855 votes, 2.0× the 4,900-vote margin.
9,855 ÷ 4,900 = 2.0
The top two polled 55.1% of votes; the other 15 candidates 44.8% between them.
(21,390 + 16,490) ÷ 68,697 = 55.1% · 30,793 ÷ 68,697 = 44.8%
Turnout of 60.9% was 1.8 pp below the state's median seat (62.7%).
60.9 − 62.7 = −1.8
The margin narrowed from 11.9 pp in 2002 to 7.1 pp.
7.1 − 11.9 = −4.8 pp
Sadhu Ram, the 2002 winner, finished second in 2007.
